Bassist Brent Wilson no longer a part of Panic! At The Disco


From their official website:

"There really isn’t a good way to say this, and it was a decision that was very tough to make, but feels like it will be the right decision for everyone. We regret to inform you that Brent is no longer a part of Panic at the Disco, and although this choice does feel very healthy, he is a great friend of ours and he will definitely be missed. We all wish him well and the best of luck in everything he wants to do in the future.The last few years will be something we will never forget, all the places we’ve been that we never thought we’d go and things we’ve seen that we thought we’d never see when we started this band.

Right now our friend jon is going to be filling in, and I’m sure it would ease his nerves a bit to get a warm reception. We’re at home preparing for the summer tour, and we’ve never worked so hard on putting something together. I can’t tell you how excited we are for these shows and for you all to see what we’ve been planning, we’ve got a few tricks up our sleeves…just you wait."

I know many of you dispise Panic! At The Disco, but I love them a lot and this is pretty sad. I just saw them in concert a couple of months ago. :(

[info]alls261 18th-May-2006 05:11 am (UTC)
Agreed.

Everyone at my school was talking about them and had that video on their MySpace so I gave them a listen and like you said, they're unlistenable.

i just saw this... weird. he was def the coolest member.

it was a decision that was very tough to make, but feels like it will be the right decision for everyone.

it doesn't sound very amicable to me.
[info]finestdrops 17th-May-2006 10:34 pm (UTC)
Awww. He doesn't want to be MTV's pet.

Fucking sellouts.
[info]veryevilpoptart 17th-May-2006 10:43 pm (UTC)
I don't mean any rudeness by this, but I'm curious; how can a band be considered sellouts after their first albums gets semi-famous?
[info]finestdrops 17th-May-2006 10:44 pm (UTC)
You pretty much answered your own question there.
[info]missirish9 17th-May-2006 10:51 pm (UTC)
well you know, once more than 5 people know about a band, they are sell outs. Its not emo cool for too many people to like the same band.
[info]hermaphrodite 17th-May-2006 11:27 pm (UTC)
Because the commenter is an asshat and had nothing better to say.
[info]xpaperxcutx 18th-May-2006 06:25 am (UTC)
because they went on MTV.
a lot of amazing bands will never get as much recognition because they never go on mtv but they have the respect, adoration, and loyalty of thousands of fans.

a lot of my favorite bands went on mtv and their albums to follow were nothing like their previous, way more commercial & shitty - trying to appeal to 12 years old girls who like Avril Lavgine.

they're sellouts for getting signed and doing promotions on mtv and stuff.
i mean, hey who doesn't want money
but a lot more people would respect certain bands if they stayed off TRL
it's not like certain bands didnt make shitloads of money before they appeared on mtv (example: Taking back sunday)
[info]hermaphrodite 17th-May-2006 11:26 pm (UTC)
Yes because a band makes money in order to you know eat and stuff that makes them SELL OUTS and SELL OUTS are badddddddddd.
[info]_myendlessstory 17th-May-2006 11:34 pm (UTC)
I always find it dumb when so-called fans call every single band that gets on MTV sellouts. If you [not the commenter, just people in general] didn't want "your" band to get famous, then maybe you shouldn't have bought their cd or go to shows. You're the reason they get famous.
[info]regina__falangi 17th-May-2006 11:51 pm (UTC)
Yes, God forbid they want to make money.
[info]lauraxlaurent19 18th-May-2006 12:11 am (UTC)
Congratulations. You have just won the Most Cliche Comment Award. How does it feel?
[info]ka_blamo 18th-May-2006 02:21 am (UTC)
I'm surprised you even take them seriously enough to call them "sellouts." They were discovered by fucking Fall Out Boy for god's sake... Their CD is pure fluff. (But catchy fluff, I'm not gonna lie ;-D )
[info]extrafinesugar 18th-May-2006 04:18 am (UTC)
LOL, sellouts. Don't they only have one album out?
[info]radname 17th-May-2006 10:35 pm (UTC)
I think their sound is catchy, well atleast to me it is. I really have no idea what any of their names are
[info]mindtrap 18th-May-2006 12:55 am (UTC)
from left to right: brent, ryan, brendon, spencer.
[info]slipsandtangles 17th-May-2006 10:35 pm (UTC)
aww. i saw panic! with fall out boy at the bamboozle two weekends ago. i witnessed a part of emo history.
[info]thatsorandom ..17th-May-2006 10:38 pm (UTC)
hahah, me too.
[info]inflixion 17th-May-2006 10:36 pm (UTC)
oh no.
[info]glamourously 17th-May-2006 10:36 pm (UTC)
Nobody cares about Brent/Spencer. Haha they aren't the "famouzzz"/"cuteeee" ones.

Spencer is cool though, I met him at Bamboozle. We were watching some jewish rabbi with robotz.
[info]glamourously 17th-May-2006 10:37 pm (UTC)
OH I ALSO SAW BRENT TRY TO FEEL UP HIS GF'S ASS OR SOMETHING THAT LOOKED LIKE IT.
[info]thatsorandom ..17th-May-2006 10:38 pm (UTC)
i saw that too, during like every single bands set.
[info]beanlove 18th-May-2006 08:52 am (UTC)
Mhm. I love Spencer. Amazingly pretty and his drumming looks just wicked.
[info]hazyxeyes 17th-May-2006 10:38 pm (UTC)
What's the reason?
[info]kimroks 17th-May-2006 10:38 pm (UTC)
THEY'RE JUST SO GODDAMN CATCHY

:'( HELP ME.
[info]mouthsopen 17th-May-2006 11:08 pm (UTC)
FOR REAL. I HATE EMO BUT I LOVE THESE GUYS, GUH.
[info]xpaperxcutx 18th-May-2006 06:29 am (UTC)
they're not emo.
[info]dreamxbreaker 17th-May-2006 10:38 pm (UTC)
I love panic!, but he's one smart guy, I wouldn't stick around either.
[info]mrs_devastat0r 17th-May-2006 10:39 pm (UTC)
what the fuck
BRENT NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
[info]_panache 17th-May-2006 10:40 pm (UTC)
What a terrible band.
[info]myxwill 18th-May-2006 02:32 am (UTC)
iawyc. Their name's cool i guess. The little exclamation point's corny and all their songs seem to have dumb long titles.
[info]_panache 18th-May-2006 05:36 am (UTC)
except for that it's clearly a rip off of an Electric Six song, and I hate it when bands do that.
[info]evenstarsfall 17th-May-2006 10:40 pm (UTC)
Aw, they've got swollen egos already. That's cute.
